Pieter - |

I am slowly but steadily working through that REMARKS file ;) I like the |
13 |
idea of what you are proposing, in fact, I really like it. I think the |
14 |
users would be keen to dropping in a graphical LiveCD and being able to |
15 |
emerge packages right off of the livecd fs. |
16 |
|
17 |
Rac just submitted some packages to me for a "stage4" - which is a |
18 |
stage3 w/ more packages. Perhaps we could extend this into the gentoopix |
19 |
idea and use stage4s to build our livecds? (btw, what does gentoopix |
20 |
stand for?). |
21 |
|
22 |
I think we could implement this fairly easily, let me know what you are |
23 |
thinking. We might want to keep our stages and minimal livecds around to |
24 |
save users from having to download big CDs if they want to install |
25 |
Gentoo (for our low bandwidth folks). |
